Support João's Dream to Graduate in America!

Hi! I’m João Alfonso. I’m from Brazil, and in 2024, I came to Ipswich, MA, as an exchange student with Rotary to complete my 3rd year of high school. Turns out, this was such a great and valuable experience for me that I really want to finish high school here and have the opportunity to get the guidance I need to go to a good college in the US! Unfortunately, in order for me to study one more year at Ipswich High School, I’d need to pay the tuition, which costs USD $20,000 (R$100,000 in Brazilian currency). Neither my family nor I have the money to pay for it, and I also can’t study abroad one more year with Rotary because it goes against their policy. The money is going to be exclusively used to pay the IHS tuition!
